This vintage
nagoya obi is made of beautiful ivory shusu silk, and elegant 'kusudama'(flowers ball) motif is embroidered elaborately.
Textile is shusu silk, and it has soft and very smooth touch.
It has prominent flaws as shown on photos, and some threads used in embroidery are missing due to the age.
There are noticeable stains next to Otaiko pattern.
Please see photos for details.
We can't say it is in very good condition, but still charming piece for its wonderful embroidery work!
